ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods are provided for converting input data streams having variable input sample rates to an output sample rate, which systems and methods are used in processing the data streams. In one embodiment, a system includes a clock source, a counter configured to count cycles for a corresponding data stream, and a data processor. The data processor is configured to read the number of cycles counted by the counter between received frame sync signals and to convert the first data stream to the predetermined output sample rate based on the corresponding number of cycles counted.
